Summer Coverage

All students holding non-immigrant visas and enrolled in summer classes are automatically enrolled in UT SHIP. Non-immigrant visa holders not registered for summer courses do not automatically have medical coverage.

If you would like to have health insurance during the summer semester while you are not taking any classes, you may enroll directly with the insurance company. To enroll, visit the enrollment page. You must enroll during the summer open enrollment period. For information about how to enroll, visit how to purchase student health insurance or contact our office.
